By this logic an American state should remit the sales tax they collect on imported cars back to Germany. The Germans would probably love this, twice as many German products are sold in the US as US products sold in Germany.

Sales Tax, Value Added Tax, Goods and Services Tax, are all taxes on consumption. They are paid by the consumer at the location of the consumption. They aren't a tax on production or producers.
